Description
COMMISSIONER GORDON IS THE NEW BATMAN!
Following the disappearance and presumed death of Batman, former police commissioner Jim Gordon has been called to carry on the Dark Knight’s legacy and become the Dark Knight’s successor.
But while the name and what it stands for remain the same, this new Batman is far from just a copy of the original. Patrolling the city in a gargantuan high-tech Bat-suit, Gordon is no shadowy vigilante. He has the full cooperation of the G.C.P.D. and the Mayor, plus a multi-million dollar budget from Powers International.
But will an expensive suit be enough to stop the mysterious, weed-like Mr. Bloom before his deadly plans for the city take root?
The #1 New York Times all-star creative team of Scott Snyder, Greg Capullo and Danny Miki introduce an all-new Dark Knight in BATMAN VOL. 8: SUPERHEAVY, with guest appearances from Brian Azzarello (WONDER WOMAN) and Jock (BATMAN: THE BLACK MIRROR). Collects BATMAN #41-45 and DC SNEAK PEAK: BATMAN #1.

Advance Praise
Praise for BATMAN VOL. 7: ENDGAME:
"ENDGAME: their biggest story line in terms of cast and scope during the duo's classic four-year run on the series and one designed to celebrate the character's 75th anniversary."--USA TODAY
"ENDGAME, as with all of Snyder's run of Batman so far, is a story that simply should not be missed. Snyder's themes are boldly stated yet again with an intent to add even more to the Batman mythos."--IGN
"ENDGAME hits the ground with a dynamic explosion, letting readers know right away that this saga is going to be every bit as dynamic as "Court of Owls," "Death of the Family" or "Zero Year." I'm all in, especially since every single contributor on this book brings their absolute best."--CBR
"Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo start their new arc with a bang, as a Batman fights against the biggest, most indomitable foes he's ever seen."--NEWSARAMA
